Payward, the operator of the Kraken cryptocurrency exchange, reported a $487 million platform margin for the third quarter of 2026 as it expands beyond core trading to offset market volatility.
Kraken's parent Payward is increasingly relying on businesses outside crypto trading to support its financial performance as weaker market activity weighs on transaction fees.
